ABOUT

What We're​ Doing

Death Knell is a monthly podcast based in San Francisco, California. Started in 2016, we try to fill the holes that form after death. We do this by talking and sharing.

Why We're Doing It

Death Knell is the product of years of listening to callers on the local suicide prevention hotline. Death Knell is hearing callers who aren't suicidal, just afraid and alone. Death Knell is an attempt to reach out to the countless people who don't know who to talk to, or where to be heard, after death.

Who We Are

Death Knell is David Ruiz. It is also his amazing guests who, month after month, open themselves up and tell their own stories for nothing in return. David Ruiz is a legal affairs journalist living and working in San Francisco. He went to school, then he worked, then he went to school again, and now he works, and he also does this.
